0 sats \ 0 replies \ @beejay 25 Oct \ parent \ on: The only thing Bitcoin is good at is breaking the law bitcoin
I use a btc-to-price converter plugin that is set up to show prices for my products in sats as well as USD side-by-side.
The plugin I've been using since last year (https://veintiuno.btc.pub/m/digitales/bitcoin-price-converter-woocommerce-plugin/) outputs a settings page like so:

It's a network of people just posting that the have room available in their car/truck/rickshaw for packages/mail/etc. to take from X Town to Y Town on their travels. I think the telegram activity just dwindled down because the mod of the group has been busy with real life anarchism (building a community of private land owners in the Ozarks).
Technically, the USPS doesn't require a return address, but with electronic mailing solutions like click-n-ship and PirateShip etc., you have to fill in something, so you can get away with filling in some nonsense. Or just use a city and a nickname, which is what I do (BJW @ Ketolishus, Railroad Island, MN, which is my neighborhood, and no house number means I could be any one of several hundred people who sent it). The only person who knows the address is the mail carrier who comes to pick up my packages and I don't care about that, I've lived here 13 years and have had the same guy all this time.
I'm not one of those uber-paranoid people who refuses to order anything online except via a DM or something, I just sometimes worry about my own safety as a over-50s single woman. Even though the owner of the property I rent has cameras everywhere, I have been harassed online before and it was not pretty. I don't like having to take my social media down for months at a time like I had to, after that. For the most part, I have repeat customers and if they know my address, it's because we exchange Christmas cards, which I LOVE to do (it's an older folks thing, you probably wouldn't understand).
I will say it's kind of annoying that people don't want to use my website to order. I have no trackers and I built it myself. Shopstr and Plebeian market have my jerky listings too, and I've gotten only 1 order this year (last year I had a few thru Shopstr, but there was issues with about 1 of every 3 orders--either something wrong with the transmission of data, such as what they ordered, their address being missing, or even what their npub was, so then after all that, I can't even reach them) and nostr DMs are ass (if we don't follow each other), I prefer doing business comms via email. And there's no such thing as 100% private email, even the services claiming to be the most secure are not perfect, don't get me started on that.
Sorry I missed this! I was preparing for our last outdoor agora market for 2025. I'll check out the stickers!
Sounds yummy!
I think it's probably great, if the miner can get up to 155 F, but honestly, people in South Africa have been making biltong for ages by just air-drying it at room temp.
V4V? Once again, you're talking over my head. I'm a simple old gal who is taking advantage of the fact that I can get meat from down the street at below market prices to profit on making a treat for people, and it helped me get through the pandemic quite well, while enjoying the process of making something by hand for people who enjoy it. If the butcher's prices ever change to the point that I can no longer handle or they do something to piss me off, I'll quit and do something else. It's not my life.
PS - I did consider what was in the market, but didn't give you my thought process: When I used to buy jerky in stores, it was about $4-6 per 3 oz pack and I've been selling mine by the 2-pack at $12/pack and haven't increased my prices since 2019 because the profit margin is still great.
I started making this stuff because of the low sugar aspect as previously mentioned, and since I'm diabetic and I like to eat a whole 2-3 oz jerky at a time, and the stuff in the stores would make that about 20 g carbs per pack, whereas mine is more like 1 g carbs per pack. It's also not really comparable to others as it's a unique product that's made by mixing lean ground meat with spice blend paste (each flavor created by me), then rolled thinly by hand between parchment sheets, then each sheet is dehydrated after scoring into strips and the meat never touches the dehydrator trays, and packaged into BPA-free 2 mil vacuum sealed bags for extended shelf life. I can't explain the taste/texture except that it's kind of like a much drier fruit leather except a bit more chewy and slightly thicker, and made with ground meat.
